You'd think that I'm old enough to avoid old scams, but I fell for one. Mylife.com teased a $1 "one time" fee. Website claimed an active lien against me. No deets. There is no active lien, just a tease. Now I'm charged $155+ for a one-year subscription I don't need.

Replying to @WhiteHouse46
The U.S. has already shipped 160 million of these doses to 100 countries – more than every other nation combined has delivered. For every one shot we’ve put in an American arm to date, we are now donating three shots globally.

Oh hey I was able to rebook on a later flight (not yet cancelled) for the low, low extra charge of $240 - more than my original round trip. They even managed to charge me twice (so far) for my single checked bag. It feels like a bait and switch.
